Hi, i've a question, there is a way to select the code row of a query. I try to explain i made a search like: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/person/51329/credits?language=IT&api_key=#mykey then i like to have the movie id was the imdb id. in the api support seems there are no additional parameters that can do this. another little problem: the request don't return the movie title in italian. thanks for the answer.

This is not supported. IMDB id is only supported in 2 places, as a queryable ID with the movie method and as a field on the primary movie facts.
As an example I just did:
Seems to work ok for me. Remember, you should be checking the
titlefield for the translated titles.Reply by hellflame
